Description

Explore a unique period in British economic and social history with this Routledge publication. While the twentieth century is often defined by the Conservative Party's struggle to limit trade union power, this book examines a different era. Between the end of the Second World War and the 1964 election of Harold Wilson's Labour government, the Conservative Party followed a distinct path known as 'voluntarism'. This work details how the party leadership adopted a constructive and conciliatory approach toward trade unions during these years. It analyzes the efforts made by leadership to avoid political confrontation and maintain stability. This text provides essential context for understanding the evolution of British political and economic relations during the post-war period.
